Strike one for Mozilla - it only opens one start page, my Avant browser lets me open as many as I want (4).
i use IE, and happily downloaded Mozilla Firefox, I've even been recommending it to ppl, more sercure and all. But I just cant get myself to stop using IE, I've never had any probs and with my trusty ZAP and AVG working, why should I? Also the Links Toolbar in Firefox have ugly icons for the shortcuts and Google Toolbar dont look nice :(

Just to add my opinion, I've been using Mozilla for a few months now, and I really like it. The tab features are probably one of my favorites, and it does seem to be overall a little bit quicker than IE, but IE is still more compatible with all websites. Using Mozilla you will run into a few websites that do not work exactly like they are suppose to, but thats why I like being able to have both Mozilla and IE :)

Mozilla does have tabs tho I'm not really sure how exactly they work. I turned them off cuz it was too fancy for my tastes.
I wish IE had tabs, i used MyIE for a while and I loved the whole tabs idea, its so much better to use.
Well I decided to try Firefox ,
so far I'm not impressed ,
mostly because the way this cable's been working the pages take as long to load ,
its not that its slow , like you click a link a few bytes go back and forth then nothing for a few seconds to a minute or 2 .
At least I know its not IE now anyway . :sad:
That's mildly irritating....have you tried going to bandwidthplace.com to see what kind of speed you're getting?Quote:

Hey Ima, how's the .css file working out for you? Got rid of the banner ads at all?
Cheers
I started using FireFox the other day. Up until now, I've stuck with IE due to having no compelling reason to change, but I figured it was worth a shot since I've been getting IE crashes.
As yet, I'm reserving comment.
